PBP got me thinking in another thread, and after thinking about it, it would not surprise me one bit if Bradley's opponent for Dec 15 is Mike Jones.
Points to ponder......
1. Arum would only identify Bradley's opponent as a "well known welterweight"
2. Jones is with TR, so easy fight to make
3. Bradley has time to make a voluntary defense
4. Jones still in top 10 of WBC
5. Berto (K9) & Peterson (Zab) appear unavailable
6. Guerrero was a pipe dream (GBP & TR)
7. 10 days before Christmas with Bradley headlining, they know they're gonna have to paper the house anyways, so having a "marketable" opponent would have been nice, but isnt mandatory.
Even though Bradley-Jones certainly isnt on anyones "must see" list, it makes good business sense for everyone involved........
